I would like to run a 5K in under thirty minutes. Even though I am a pretty fast sprinter, running long distances have always been difficult. I always seem to get a stomach cramp or run out of breath, but a few years ago, I started running with my husband. He's a former Marine, so he's been running as long as I've known him.
Another goal (el objetivo) I have is to be bilingual, which is why I'm taking this clase. I took a couple of years of high school Spanish, but I also study a little bit on my own. Un nina I used to work with told me that she learned to speak Spanish fluently just from listening to Spanish radio and television. I'm not sure if that's true, but it probably helps, I suppose. I feel that I'm learning more with each module and having to listen to myself say the words is helping with my pronunciation and fluency. I would like to eventually take more clases de Espanol in the future.
Hey Kim!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome goal...and if you're a good sprinter, I'm sure you'll be able to achieve the distance aspect of things. If you work with anyone who is a native speaker, that's what has helped me stay somewhat up-to-date in my conversational skills. I too have heard that media is a great way to absorb culture.
Cheers!

ReplyDeleteJorge,
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize we had to post original pics, but I will from now on.... Is it too late to post one for "Mi Objectivo"?
